Small and Medium Enterprises Development PS offers to help a hawker whose groundnuts were poured by Nairobi Kanjos.
Principal Secretary, State Department for Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises Development, Susan Auma, asked Kenyans to aid her in tracing a street vendor whose stock was destroyed by Nairobi County askaris, popularly known as kanjos.
The PS condemned the incident asking Nairobi Governor Johnson Sakaja to take action to get rid of rogue county askaris.
“Dear compatriots, I implore your assistance in locating this hustler whose endeavors and livelihoods have been detrimentally impacted,” she stated.
Additionally, the PS urged Sakaja to create operational zones for micro and small businesses and integrate, formalize, and support them.
PS Auma asserted that fostering an atmosphere that is favorable to SMEs was essential to developing young entrepreneurs for the benefit of the nation.

“Effective leadership necessitates the provision of guidance and viable alternatives. Let us champion the significance of small businesses in pursuit of delivering the plan,” she added.
The PS comments come after a viral video emerged online depicting a hawker crying uncontrollably after Nairobi Kanjos destroyed his stock of groundnuts.
The groundnut seller was pictured seeking solace in the arms of a wellwisher while staring at the goods spread across the street.
A section of Kenyans joined PS Auma in condemning the behavior of the county officials and the motive that fueled them to jeopardize the hawker’s livelihood.
